# Participation as a Miner

**Becoming a Miner:** To embark on the journey of becoming a miner within the Orangery network, you'll need not just a high-performance computing setup but also a significant investment in Orangery tokens. For those with the necessary resources, "self-mining" presents an attractive option. This involves creating and solving your own tasks, a method that can yield substantial Orangery rewards. However, this path demands both a considerable initial outlay and a depth of technical expertise.

**Model Registration for Developers:** If you're a machine learning aficionado, whether as a researcher, fine-tuner, or an open-source innovator looking to monetize your creations, Orangery offers an exhilarating platform to showcase your models to the world. Our network ensures your models remain operational and resistant to censorship. Deploying your models on Orangery is straightforward, engaging, and even enables you to launch your model as a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO). This unique approach incorporates a robust tokenomics framework, inviting anyone to contribute to and benefit from the success of your model. Dive into the Orangery ecosystem to unlock new avenues for your machine learning projects, all while fostering a collaborative and profitable environment.
